After injuring my rotator cuff doing exercise, I was presented with the option of surgery or PT. I…read morechose to give PT a try and compared different businesses close to me. Seattle's Elite has an environment that seems more focused on treatment in a quiet environment. Another business seemed focused on glitz and customer clothing. I was skeptical of how much of a difference the treatments and the personalized exercise routines would make, but after a few sessions there was a noticeable improvement in my range of movement and level of discomfort. The therapist clearly explained how to utilize my muscles properly not only to reduce pain, but to correctly use specific muscles and movements in my exercise routines. My sessions were very insightful, and had an element of retraining and eliminating bad exercise habits. The clientele of Seattle's Elite ranges from young to senior. It is a very comfortable environment in which to receive PT treatment.

This place is amazing! After months of frustration trying to find a pelvic floor therapist after…read moregiving birth to my first child, I finally searched on my own and found this location. The people my doctor was referring me to at Swedish and UW had months long waitlists.. Amanda was able to see me in a couple weeks! And I know what you're thinking, maybe Amanda isn't that good, that's why she didn't have a wait? Nothing could be further from the truth- she was incredible! Totally supportive, a fantastic listener and a compassionate partner in my postpartum journey, Amanda was an incredible guide to building strength for life. I'm seriously grateful for Amanda and her amazing team- from reception to the athletic trainers who work with you, everyone was so positive and supportive. Getting back my body after giving birth was hard- I am so fortunate I got to work with Amanda to make it even just a little bit easier. I don't want to need PT again but I wouldn't be sad to ever go back to this amazing crew! Thank you thank you, for empowering women to heal and be strong!

Despite seeing several physical therapists, and knowing surgery wasn't an option, I feared this struggle would be lifelong. Ryan helped me get my shoulder strong gradually, but surely. I had a couple of flare-ups on the way. I felt impatient with myself and was quite frustrated, but Ryan was incredibly patient and came up with new programs to continue the work while adapting to my body's needs. Ryan's experience and kindness truly stand out. His ability to maintain energy and focus with numerous clients back-to-back is impressive. If you've tried physical therapy before without success, I highly recommend giving Ryan a try!

I've been to too many who give the generic "oh it's bc of poor posture and ergonomic set up" and that is not the case with Trish. I went in because of really bad neck and upper back pain and she took the time to listen to my history in order to properly diagnose the problem. I learned a lot about my body and the way it compensates for the anatomical asymmetries which has built up this pain for some time. She is also realistic in her expectations of the exercises she assigns, understanding your body will rebel by first assigning more manageable lying stretches and then progressing to advanced stretches in my later sessions. I highly recommend Trish. She is patient, really takes the time to listen to your issues to understand the root cause, then gives you a holistic approach to fixing the issues.

On a backpacking trip I messed up my neck. After ignoring my neck pain for over a month, I searched…read morefor a PT to help me out. I found a "sports PT" that had received some good feedback and so I thought he would be right for me. After a few visits with no improvement in my neck feeling any better, I talked to a friend who had seen Trish and recommended that I should see her.   I was impressed with how easy it was to schedule an appointment with Trish online. She looked at my neck (obviously) but she also noted that the way I was breathing was contributing to neck tension, and that my trip just pushed me over the edge. So instead of just the neck exercises I was given at my first PT experience, Trish gave me exercises that addressed my breathing issues and in just over a week I felt substantially better.   I'm so thankful that I was referred to Trish and appreciate her expertise in whole body mechanics. Thanks Trish!!

She is also supportive when working with other health care practitioners. The work I have receive has helped me regain range of motion in my shoulder after a car accident. She continues to support shifts with awareness exercises. I highly recommend working with Sarah. Note: If you are new to Feldenkrais it is something be patient with. Somatic education can take a session or two to integrate, but then the body shifts in ways that may be more sustainable than traditional PT work. This was the case for me.

I had gotten PT on the East Coast, and it mainly involved 5 minutes of them doing some half-hearted manipulation and then making me do reps on some machines. Karen went WAY beyond. I am an aging jock, and had a chronic injury that had resulted from a chronically tight hip. In a few sessions she has gotten my hip moving in ways it hasn't in more than a decade. And the range of motion just keeps improving. I love that she spends the whole hour with me, is very personable, and just a nice person, along with being very knowledgeable and skilled. She knows what she is doing. Thank you Karen!.........Peter

Therapists are great (Chris rules!) But the business itself is really a mess…read more Front desk is completely absent and oblivious to patients most of the time, where someone is there. More often than not...no one is there at all. Appts can be significantly late, too often. Their billing Dept. and process though...what a joke. They have a written policy...that they break over and over. No statements, no record of treatment, no treatment codes, no explanations at all, in any fobrm/way. Months to get ANY info about costs...long after miltiple visits, again violating their own written policy! Have recieved TEXT MESSAGES ftom an unknown number as an 'invoice'...with a link to a random pay site. SCAM.. or new (super shady) billing practice that breaks every one of their policies??? Who knows!! But bro, trust me! VERY poorly run and managed business!

I wanted to share my experience at Union Physical Therapy, because I think there's a genuine…read moreopportunity here for growth -- particularly around how front desk staff interact with patients. My PT appointment happened to fall on an already difficult day. My doctor's appointment ran 30 minutes over (something entirely outside my control), which made me late for my scheduled visit. I called ahead, let the front desk know I was en route via Uber, and offered to accept a shortened session rather than cancel. What I received in return was a firm "no" and notice that I would be charged a $100 no-show fee -- for an appointment I was actively trying to make it to, that would have only cost me a $40 copay. I understand that late policies exist for good reasons, and I respect that. What gave me pause was the complete absence of flexibility or empathy in how the situation was handled. Healthcare is rarely a straight line -- delays happen, systems are complicated, and patients are often already navigating stressful circumstances by the time they arrive at a PT office. A 5-minute conversation that acknowledged that reality would have gone a long way. There's also a certain irony in a physical therapy practice -- a field built around patience, recovery, and meeting people where they are -- having front desk interactions that feel more transactional than compassionate. Bedside manner isn't just for clinicians. The front desk is often a patient's first and last impression of a practice, and that interaction sets the tone for the entire care experience. I'm not writing this to be harsh. The therapists themselves may be wonderful. But I'd encourage the practice leadership to invest in training front desk staff on de-escalation, patient communication, and the kind of grace that makes a difficult healthcare journey a little more manageable. Patients who are trying to show up -- even imperfectly -- deserve to be met with some of that same effort.
